So sorry to hear of his passing. Wasn’t the same not seeing his truck go up and down the road. to see him waving or stopping out front to ask how we have been. Lots of years have passed but I still remember the bonfires on top of the sleigh riding hill, and my dad and him hanging out talking around the fire, while all of us kids would sleighride till we couldn’t feel our feet good enough to walk back up the hill.
May your memories bring you comfort. Keeping you, Mark, Tina, and the rest of the family in our prayers.
Love,
Terri, Mike, and Alex Reamey
